"Yae Sakura, was He... led into this illusion by you?" Suddenly, Dr. Mei pushed his glasses and said.
Everyone knows who Dr. Mei is talking about—the Honkai Will.
"Yes, in fact, the reason why the Herrscher of Corrosion is so strong is because it has the Will of Honkai in its body." Yaezakura said slowly.
"You're crazy. You let Suzu, who finally escaped from the control of the Honkai Will, be controlled by the Honkai Will again. If she does something that crosses the line again under the control of the Honkai Will..." Before [Kiana] finished speaking, Yae Sakura interrupted and said, "There's no need to be so euphemistic, [Kiana], it's better to say that the Herrscher of Corrosion has already crossed the line."
"Then how did you..."
"Don't worry, Ling is not the Herrscher. Ling has always been with Achen, together with my sister Rin." Yaesakura said.
"...accompanying Wang Chen with Rin...could she be? But what about that Herrscher of Corrosion?" [Raiden Mei] reacted quickly and asked.
"That Herrscher of Corrosion was originally born from Ling, and it was completely twisted with resentment and malice that lasted for ten thousand years. I separated it and combined it with the Will of Honkai, giving birth to the true Herrscher of Corrosion personality. After all, only in this way can the Will of Honkai not have any doubts and reside in the Herrscher of Corrosion. It was an existence that should have been destroyed by Chen and Ling together." Yaezakura said slowly, "Don't worry, my real body is waiting there. When the time is right, the Corrosion Core will return to the hands of the owner to whom it belongs."
"You're too bold to even take Honkai into account." Bronya said, and began to detect the data of the internal space. Then she said, "I advise you to keep an eye on the Herrscher of the Thousand. I'm afraid Honkai will start to target her. After all, she has helped the captain too many times. I'm afraid Honkai will be ready to close the net."
"Okay." Yaezakura nodded, and the others continued to watch the ensuing battle.
……
The next morning, everyone was refreshed after a night of rest, except for the students of Qianyu Academy, who were always in a state of fear. With Theresa's explanation and the power of the Thousand Herrscher, at least these students were able to follow the others and not run around.
"Qianren, what's the current situation over there with the Erosion Herrscher?" Wang Chen sent Qianren to monitor the situation of the Erosion Herrscher yesterday. Now that the Qianren Herrscher is back, it seems that nothing unexpected has happened.
"That guy is still fast asleep, but there is something that may be a bit troublesome." Qianren looked a little serious and said, "In the third world, the last clone of the Corrosion Herrscher noticed the situation of the main body and has left the third world and come to the mezzanine, preparing to return to the main body to provide assistance. This is the information I just learned from the clone buried in the third world."
"In other words, the Herrscher of Corrosion is about to wake up, and has also gathered the power brought by the third clone?" Wang Chen said in a deep voice.
"That's right... Therefore, either you have to end this battle quickly or choose a third world to find more partners." The Herrscher of the Thousand suggested.
"No need... Let's have a decisive battle now. If time drags on, Fu Hua will be in danger." Wang Chen shook his head. He had reached this point and was well prepared. He could no longer give up and change his goal. Wang Chen was very clear about the principle of "the first effort will weaken, the second will weaken, and the third will be exhausted".
"Well, I wish us good luck in martial arts. Everyone, please prepare to go to the mezzanine space~" The Thousand Herrscher returned to his previous cynical look, tore open a huge hole with his hands, then stood in front of the hole, bowed and invited, and said: "Please~"
Wang Chen was the first to step into the cave, and the others followed closely in his footsteps. After everyone had entered the cave, the Herrscher of the Thousands saw that this world of destiny began to collapse and break apart, and he said slowly, "Very good, this world has also broken apart, and we can take back some of our power."
The surrounding space began to fall apart, but the strange thing was that they were finally gathered into silk threads, fell into the hands of the Thousand Herrscher and finally merged with him. When they were about to be gathered, the Thousand Herrscher entered the hole he had opened and took back the last silk thread.
After entering, the Herrscher of the Thousand heard Wang Chen's voice: "Are all here?"
"Everyone has entered, and the world of destiny has collapsed." The Thousand Rulers walked up to Wang Chen and said.
"Lead the way." Wang Chen said lightly.
"Yes, Lord God's Messenger."
Chapter 300: Yu Duchen's Rage
In the extremely chaotic space with no visible boundaries, a group of people marched forward hand in hand, with a silk thread tied around each person's waist. Because this space was extremely chaotic, if they were not careful and did not move forward together, they would be separated. Therefore, Wang Chen held hands and asked the Thousand Rulers to produce silk threads to connect everyone one by one, so that they could continue to move forward.
"Walking in such a dark place with no visible edge, those students are already afraid. If it weren't for the Thousand Herrscher's threads binding them or even restraining them, I'm afraid some of them would have already fled and disappeared in the turbulence of the chaotic space."
Theresa heard the whispers from the students of Qianyu Academy behind her and sighed. She originally did not want the Thousand Herrscher to forcibly control the students' movements, but now she realized that if she did not take some tough measures, the students of Qianyu Academy would not know how to die. Everyone understands the truth, and Theresa also explained it very clearly. However, due to the bad nature of human nature, people always fail to make correct judgments.
"Those who are sneaking around and are afraid and want to escape are basically the guys we found in the second world. These people failed the test of humanity and made mistakes. That is why they need to be strictly controlled. And letting the Thousand Rulers do this is what she is good at. At least for so long, no student has been lost because of this." Wang Chen looked at the team behind him and said slowly.
Theresa fell into deep thought, but before Theresa could think about it for too long, she heard Wang Chen's voice: "Okay, don't think about it anymore... Get ready, we're here."
"We're here? Ugh!" Theresa was slightly stunned. She was about to say that it was still dark and there was nothing here, but soon, her body instinctively felt a very strong and disgusting smell appearing not far away. The bitter metallic smell that hit her nose was the symbol of Honkai energy.
"What a terrifying Honkai energy level! This is probably the highest Honkai energy level we have encountered on this trip." Under intense pressure, Theresa said with a drop of sweat on her forehead.
The others were also affected to varying degrees. The most relaxed ones were Wang Chen, Lei Luyayi, and the Thousand Herrschers. As for the Colorless Brilliant Flame, she only relied on her equipment to reach an attack power of more than 2200hw, but she herself was not at this level, so it was quite difficult for her. As for the ordinary people, they might have felt nauseous and uncomfortable because they had never been exposed to it before, but they did not feel oppressed.
"Stinky fox, there's such a big fuss even when sleeping... No! It's the clone of the stinky fox from the third world, what does it want to do?!" The Thousand Rulers reacted and rushed forward immediately.
"Wait a minute, Thousand Herrscher!" Wang Chen stopped the Thousand Herrscher's impulsive behavior. With the help of Femilis, he also saw the actions of the clone of the Herrscher. It was too late to stop it from this distance, so he could only wait and see.
Afterwards, Wang Chen saw that the clone entered the body of the Herrscher Feiyuwan, and then disappeared without a sound. The huge Houkai energy and the sense of oppression just now all disappeared. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, wondering why the strong fluctuations disappeared.
Wang Chen spent some time explaining, and then looked at the Herrscher of the Thousand to see what kind of results she would know. The Herrscher of the Thousand said, "I'm afraid this is the stinky fox's way of saving himself. We may not have much time. If we don't act now, the partner you mentioned may be in trouble."
"There is no time to lose, let's get closer to the enemy. Thousands of people, do the students you lead need to continue moving forward?" Wang Chen asked.
"There's still turbulence around. They need to get closer before they can officially enter the territory of that stinky fox." said the Thousand Rulers.
After Wang Chen confirmed from Femilis that what the Thousand Herrscher said was true, he could only lead everyone to move forward. After they entered the so-called territory, Wang Chen stopped the Thousand Herrscher and asked her to take care of Jiuxiao, Meiyi, Lin and the students of Qianyu Academy. Then he continued to move forward with Theresa and the others.
However, even so, the students were no more than 150 meters away from the Corrosion Herrscher when they entered the territory. When the Corrosion Herrscher woke up, the students would be spotted by the Corrosion Herrscher at a glance. Therefore, Wang Chen and the others could only try their best to prevent the Corrosion Herrscher from harming the people behind him.
After entering the territory, everything around became brighter. At least the Herrscher Feiyuwan in front of him could be seen clearly. Just as the Herrscher of the Thousands said, he had fallen into a deep sleep and showed no intention of waking up.
"What should we do now? Where is Fu Hua?" Theresa said after looking around and not finding any trace of Fu Hua.
"This is the world of consciousness. Fu Hua must have transformed into a conscious body and entered the depths of the consciousness of the Corrosion Ruler, so you can't see her here. If we want to help Fu Hua and bring her back, we also need to transform ourselves from real to virtual and enter the depths of the consciousness of the Corrosion Ruler." Wang Chen explained.
"Then what should we do?" Lei Luyayi asked.
"Let me do it. I'll take you with me... Be careful! There's a high-energy reaction!" Wang Chen was about to use the power of Wanhua to transform into the Herrscher of Consciousness again and capture the feather of Yu Duchen used by Fu Hua and enter the illusion space created by her. But who would have thought that Femilis suddenly sent a warning that there was a rapidly increasing amount of Honkai energy in front of him, and Wang Chen hurriedly reminded everyone to dodge and be on guard.
A half-blackened feather floated out from between the eyebrows of the Herrscher Feiyuwan. Wang Chen's face changed and he said, "Yu Duchen was half-corroded? Wait...what's wrong with his consciousness...?"
Wang Chen felt that his consciousness was beginning to blur. Then, Wang Chen noticed that Theresa and the others were transformed into balls of light one after another and were sucked into the world of illusion by Yu Duchen. Moreover, this suction force was still expanding and gradually began to attack everyone in the entire space.
"Could it be that the third clone of the Herrscher of Corrosion just now helped the Herrscher of Corrosion to further control Yu Duchen, thus causing Yu Duchen to go berserk? Damn, I'm going to be sucked in, all changes! One person with a thousand faces!" At the moment when Wang Chen's consciousness was completely blurred and he was about to be sucked in by Yu Duchen, he successfully transformed into the Herrscher of Consciousness, manipulated the power of consciousness, protected his true spirit, and took the initiative to enter it.
"Wait, what happened there... Why am I so sleepy all of a sudden..." The Herrscher of the Thousands also noticed Yu Duchen's light and was about to say what happened, but his consciousness also became blurred and he fell down. Other students of Qianyu Academy, Jiuxiao, Meiyi and others also fell down. The strange thing was that the last one to fall was Lin.
……
"Finally he appears. Is this the man you observed, the man favored by fate? He has finally been resurrected from ancient times." A man's voice appeared in Wang Chen's ears.
"Who is watching and talking?" At this moment, Wang Chen was still in a half-asleep state, and he just subconsciously had this question.
"His name... is too old to be traced back. I don't know if he still remembers it. In this case, let's give him a title, just like the seven of us. Let me think... since he is a man favored by fate and carries the only hope of the entire universe civilization, to some extent, he is the luckiest man. So let's call him 'Xing'." A familiar female voice sounded from the side.
"Prophet..." Wang Chen's consciousness quietly gathered the moment he realized the other party's familiar voice.
Chapter 301 His Name is Hua
"Lucky? Do you really think so? The hope of the entire universe...that kind of pressure is definitely not a lucky thing." There was a hint of sadness in the man's tone.
"Then... I will bless him. In the name of the prophet, I wish this child that he will one day be able to hold happiness in his hands." The prayer voice of the "prophet" reached Wang Chen's ears, as if it had reached a resonance with his soul, and then...
"Host...Host..."
"Brother Wang Chen...Brother Wang Chen..."
Two faint girl's voices rang beside his ears. With the continuous calling, they became louder and louder, until finally - Wang Chen's consciousness was completely concentrated, and he regained consciousness. When he opened his eyes, he saw two anxious faces.
The first face was very familiar, it was Lin. But Wang Chen didn't know why she was here, and appeared beside him. The second face was also familiar. Although it was not the first time he had seen her, this was the first time they officially met.
"System... No, Femilis, how did you get out?" Wang Chen sat up and found that he had released his ever-changing state and returned to his original appearance. Could it be that his power as the Herrscher of Consciousness had been exhausted?
"Tongbao doesn't know why this happened... Oh, it has come to this, and I can no longer call myself Tongbao." At this time, Femilis, who was dressed as a blonde succubus, knocked her head, coughed twice, saluted in a funny way, and said with a smile, "Captain, your most lovely AI Femilis reports to you."
"From what you said... I have more than one AI?" Wang Chen touched his chin and said
"Uh... Captain... I have called you host so many times obediently, and I have never caused any trouble." Femilis's face froze, and then she said.
"Oh, from what you said, it turns out that this AI can be replaced." Wang Chen's expression began to become playful.
"!! No, my good host, good captain! Don't replace Femilis! Femilis won this position with great difficulty!" Femilis panicked and waved her hands. But before Femilis could panic for long, she felt a big hand rubbing her head, and then she heard Wang Chen's voice in her mind:
"It's easy to not change it. Next time, remember not to wear this outfit when there are other people around, especially children. Although I like clothes very much, please don't lead children astray."
"Hehe, got it. I'll only wear it for you, Captain." Femilis made a heart shape with her hands and said with a smile.
Wang Chen shook his head and stopped flirting with Femilis. After all, business was more important now. He looked at Lin and asked, "Lin, why are you here? Where's Yae Rin? How is she?"
"Not long after you walked over, there was suddenly a burst of light, and then I saw everyone fall down and turned into balls of light and were sucked in. I was able to hold on to the end because Lin and I have two souls in one body. But even so, we were both sucked in, and then my consciousness became fuzzy. I just vaguely felt that something familiar was calling me, so I reached over there, and when I woke up, I found myself here, and saw you, Brother Wang Chen, and that... strange guy."
Lin pointed at Femilis behind Wang Chen and said.
"It's okay, she is also our partner." Wang Chen turned his head. At this moment, Femilis had quickly changed her clothes. She wore a dark blue hair accessory in the shape of a Möbius ring on her head. Her clothes also changed from the extremely revealing succubus outfit to a blue and white dress. She wore white stockings and small leather shoes on her feet. She had become normal again.
"Hello, Lin-chan." Femilis greeted warmly.
Lin nodded slightly, then looked at Wang Chen and continued, "I'm not sure why I came here, and I found that Lin and I were separated and disappeared, and I couldn't hear her voice anymore."
"It looks like Yu Duchen has gone berserk and dragged everyone in the entire area into the illusion. This is going to be a bit troublesome." Wang Chen felt a headache. He never expected that everyone would be drawn into Yu Duchen's illusion.
Well, since we are caught up in an illusion, where is this place?
Wang Chen began to look around. He was surrounded by a purple scene. Although he could not see any light source, the surroundings were not dim. He stepped on the ground and found that the dark ground was rippled by his movement, as if he was standing on a thin pool of water. He even bent down to observe and could see his reflection on the ground. However, when he touched it with his hand, he found that it was not the touch of water, but more like the touch of a mirror.
"What exactly is this place? Femilis, do you know?" Wang Chen asked.
"Captain, you successfully transformed into a Herrscher of Consciousness at the last moment. Although you were sucked into Yu Duchen, you used the power of the Law of Consciousness to resist Yu Duchen's power, so you did not enter Yu Duchen's illusion. This should be the gap in the illusion created by Yu Duchen. There seems to be several illusions here, stacked one on top of another. We should be at the bottom now." Femilis explained.
"Then the others were dragged into those illusions?" Wang Chen said.
"That's right, host. Our current plan is to find the people trapped in each illusion and then wake them up. Then we can get out of the illusion." Femilis analyzed.
"But where are those illusions?" Wang Chen looked around but couldn't see anything, so he turned around and looked back. Suddenly, Wang Chen's sight focused on one place, and he shouted loudly: "Lin! Don't touch it! Stop now!"
Wang Chen noticed Lin behind him, and didn't know why she didn't follow him. He stretched out his hand in a daze, and then a white crack appeared out of thin air. Lin was about to step into it. Wang Chen hurriedly chased after her, but unfortunately he was a step too late and failed to catch her. Wang Chen had no choice but to rush into the crack.
"Captain! Wait for Femilis!" Femilis immediately followed, turned into a data stream, and quickly entered the crack that was about to close.
……
"Di Di-"
"careful!"
"Woo!"
The sound of a horn came into Lin's ears, allowing her to regain consciousness. Just as she was wondering why she had suddenly lost consciousness again, Lin suddenly found herself in the middle of the road, and a taxi was coming towards her, braking and honking its horn.
Just when Lin felt that she was about to be hit by a car, suddenly a figure grabbed her, then threw her to the side, avoiding the taxi that couldn't stop.
"Is everyone okay? Did you hit anything?" The taxi driver got out of the car and looked at the scene in panic.
"It's okay, uncle. The little girl doesn't look injured."
"Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
"Let me ask this little sister."
After a while of questions and answers between the man and woman, Lin realized that the person who saved her life was an older sister. She looked up and saw a girl with gray hair and red-rimmed glasses. The girl was staring at her and asked softly, "Little sister, my name is Hua. Are you injured just now? Do you need to be taken to the hospital?"
Chapter 302: The Origin of Hua
In the boundless darkness, Fu Hua sacrificed herself in a strike to activate Yu Duchen to drag the powerful Herrscher into the illusion. Originally, she was constantly using Yu Duchen's power to try her best to delay the erosion of the Herrscher's power, but suddenly something unexpected happened, and a dark corrosive sword from the outside world pierced through her brain.
If it were a physical body, Fu Hua would have died at this moment... However, in the world of consciousness, Fu Hua used up the last bit of her strength to disperse her consciousness and injected it into Yu Duchen, desperately making a final resistance. She couldn't let the Corrosion Ruler come out, and couldn't let the Corrosion Ruler corrode Yu Duchen. She had to buy time for others.
However, as her consciousness finally faded, Fu Hua had a question: Why did she risk her life so recklessly? What was the meaning of doing all this? For her partner? For her family? For the world? As her consciousness continued to disperse, Fu Hua felt as if she had transformed into countless figures, with some memories becoming increasingly blurred, while others were quietly awakening.
Fu Hua saw many memories flashing back at this moment: a girl standing alone in the cold wind, a warrior wearing armor and holding a golden sword, a cold-blooded killer, an immortal who was isolated from the world...
Which one of them is me? The moment the question arose, Fu Hua had the answer in her heart. They are all me, they were once me. The scene was interrupted, and the consciousness was completely dispersed, and finally silent, leaving only the red fire feather, quietly dyed with black.
……
"Hmm..." When it was still pitch black outside the window, the girl named Hua had already woken up. This was a sleeping habit she had long developed. Lying in the thick and warm quilt, Hua lay quietly in this peaceful place.
"I always feel like... I have forgotten something. What is it?" Hua raised his hand and touched the side of his head.
"Ah... I remember now. I have to report for school today. I have to get ready quickly."
Hua then immediately stood up, washed up briefly, packed his things, and just when he was about to change into the clothes from his martial arts gym, he put them down again, opened the package, and took out the new uniform that he had only tried on once after receiving it.
"If possible, I'd like to change it when I enter school... Oh, forget it, I'll have to get used to it sooner or later." The girl sighed in her soft voice.
"Let's do today's practice, jog 1 kilometer first." Hua then ran out of the house. Hua has always insisted on daily practice. This is a daily compulsory homework for the daughter of a martial arts school, and Hua has long been accustomed to it. At dawn, Hua was running on the familiar street. Soon, Hua met an old man who was also taking a walk in the early morning.
"Hey, good morning, Xiaohua. Oh, are you wearing new clothes today? Not the ones you wear at the martial arts gym?" The old man smiled and looked at Hua who stopped jogging towards him, waved and greeted him.
"Good morning, Uncle Ji. It's too late. I have to go to the hospital after practice and then catch a plane. I don't have time to change clothes." Hua stopped and greeted the familiar old man with a gentle smile.
"Oh, are you in such a hurry? Then go quickly and don't delay." The old man called Uncle Ji waved goodbye to Hua, and Hua also nodded and waved goodbye to Uncle Ji, and then continued to run forward in a hurry.
After turning a few more corners, he ran into a young man who was waiting for breakfast. When the young man saw Hua, he greeted Hua and said, "Hey? Ah Hua, you haven't left yet? Aren't you going to that... Canghai City to study?"
"Well, let's go today. The ticket is at 8 o'clock." Hua stopped, nodded and said.
"Oh, then you are not in a hurry at all. You are worthy of being a martial artist. Hey, ha! You have to exercise every day." The young man demonstrated it in a very professional manner and said with a smile. Hua also chuckled twice.
"Oh, by the way, you have to go see your dad soon, right? Oh, I won't keep you any longer. See you when you come back after the holiday." The young man looked at the time, remembered something, and said quickly. Hua nodded to thank him, then said goodbye to the young man and continued running forward.
